I do enjoy the structure and find the gentle suppression of highlights and shadows adjacent to the curves quite compelling. I wonder why you ddn't make the central vertical vertical?

I think I might have been tempted to tweak the levels on the building to bring the white to true white, I think that would have lifted the image a little.

Overall, it is an interesting shot but its minimalist nature does limit your choices somewhat.

Just some thoughts...

Thanks for that... the vertical being wrong was just incompetence. Lack of a stranger..... well that was me the photographer!!! Very helpful though thanks for your trouble.

Just not feeling it. The definition needs to be a bit more, and you have something in the lower left that is distracting, but it doesn't seem to give me the feel of a stranger in a strange land.

That is some odd looking architecture.
